Swim/Bike/Run.....Everyday?

Last summer when Hubs and I first started doing “triathlons” together it was fun.  We would do a bike OR a run OR a swim in the evenings and usually on Saturday morning (unless I could talk him out of it.)  It was fun.  We would talk and hang out and giggle.  We did 3 triathlons and it was pretty fun; our goal was to finish and beat our previous time…if we could.  This winter while we were planning the upcoming summer he said he wanted to do a lot races.  And by a lot, I mean, every weekend.  Granted most of them are local and don’t really take that much time out of our weekends but seriously? If I’m going to agree to do something every weekend it better be something I enjoy. 

Which brings me to the point of this post:  Hubs has decided (technically he decided awhile ago, it just recently dawned on me what it was doing to my enjoyment of swim/bike/run) he is doing the Half Ironman.  And the ‘training’ plan comes with two a day workouts and distances my who-haa can not tolerate. (Seriously, I LOVE biking but sitting on my bike for 2.5 hours is not really my idea of fun!)  When we swim, the distances are so long that I have no interest in even going.  And as far as running is concerned—I HATE running (which is no secret) anyway, so upping the ante on running really doesn't bode well for my running shoes since he is all, “I’m going to run our next half marathon at a 2:15 pace”….which would be fine except I can’t keep up at 2:15 and the only reason I agreed to run 13.1 miles again was because we we're doing it together.   

Anyway, I’m trying to figure how to manage an overzealous husband with the need for a well balanced life outside of work and workouts.  I'm having a difficult time getting my bearings without also crapping on Hubs dream of being the next Chris Lieto...
